  1. Don't get me wrong, if someone doesn't want to go because they don't have the right kit for the conditions I respect that. It's the people who turn up in something with the thermal and waterproof properties of a used teabag and spend the day moaning about being cold and wet that annoy me

  2. I've found lipos also aren't affected by cold weather as much as nimh batteries.

    A V2 or V3 trigger trolley is about £5.  It's not rational to fit a mosfet that costs two or three times that just to protect the trigger contacts.  Yes, you can get higher current flow, but if you're dicking with the wiring you can stuff 16awg in there anyway.  Mosfets are nice, but you don't need them.

    This. My AK has been run with only lipos for around ten years now and is still going strong (sod's law now means it'll now stop working in Sunday) 

  3. My main weaknesses are probably my fitness, but not in the same way as others have commented. I've always been skinny but years of substance abuse has left me looking like I could be in an Oxfam appeal advert and I find it almost impossible to put on any weight. 

    Second is probably my complete lack of tech skills meaning I've got quite a few busted guns which I really should get fixed. 

    Last is my inability to hit anything with a pistol unless it's close range.

    Not that I can see. You may be thinking of that 15-going-on-16 year old trying some "If I pretend I'm my dad, hop in a DeLorean and take my mum to the high school dance in 1955..." wheeze.

    Fair enough, I must've been getting the threads muddled up. My apologies

  5. Another vote for the AKS74U here. My old cyma one's internals are bomb proof and the hop up gave me more than enough range to keep up with others (hell, I was even accused of running a hot gun several times). When I broke the pot metal body I replaced it with an E&L, but that turned out to be a lemon so I dropped the cyma gb into it and it's still running strong
